In writing this poem I'm feeling depleted,
Hoping and praying it won't get deleted.
It doesn't concern sex or passion or hate,
Just making words rhyme as I try to relate.

It has little meaning, just a word here and there,
No thoughts or real meaning that I'm trying to share
Just some "BS" and words that may rhyme,
Just kinda writin' and wastin' my time.

I guess I could say I'm doing something,
But in reality, I'm writin' 'bout nothing.
But my paragraphs show it's written in verse,
If I put my mind to it, it'd probably be worse.

So if you're reading this poem, act like you're doing something,
And if someone asks what you're reading,
Just say, "Oh, it's just nothing."

Please stop in more often, as soon as you've got nothing to talk about. You know, that's one of my favorite topics of conversation. And how about some more poetry from your pen?
I've got a feeling there's a wealth of subject matter stored in that mind of yours. I'd love to hear it.

I prefer to tell people I'm reading poetry written by my favorite Toe! Nice to see you here! And I disagree with 'deer..(come on back when you can!)..no WAY! Get your butt back here NOW! We're all in Toe-deficiency here! And there's no Toe-shot we can get to help!

Great poem, old Toe - My reply will be coming soon, you rascally scalawag and devil.  Its great seeing you post again.  I'm looking forward to late March and early April, when I can "kill a few soldiers" with you.  Take care, old man.

Remember the letter you once wrote to me
Well guess what...if you leave I will do that exacta moa to thee
So you have a choice to leave with nothing on your mind
Or with more than a handful about your behind
Chose wisely what will you do
Perhaps you should keep writing about a toe in the shoe
I surly will miss you a whole big bunch
Make sure when you here to call me for lunch
Somehow I think you got the hunch
I will not weep or cry
But I sure will miss toerag's lullaby
Take care




 The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.

If Toe says it's 'nuthin'
it's nuthin' !

When my sweetie scowls
cause I'm goo-goo over Toe.
I just smile and sigh.
I know that Toe is laughing
and preparing for
the next time he drops by.

Sweetie asks me what I'm thinking,
and starts to acting funny,
when I just smile coquetishly
and say ... 'Nuthin' honey !
